I couldn't agree more. Limit what you share of your private life. Not everyone wishes you well, and the more people know about you, the more entitled the feel to opinions about your life.

sharing was how influencers were making their money back then. Now they can just do ad and pnly make videos with paid sponsorship. but 10 yrs ago if you werent sharing real life, no one was watching. Even today, a lot of people are trying to come up on social media by oversharing. It's jsut the game. You play it for a few yrs then shut it down and only post when paid to. The TY ad revenue isnt enough anyhow, sponsored content is what really pays

It's the price you pay for fame...don't put your business out there,where nobody ask/push you;then when something happens...you suddenly start to 'drop words at the people who've stood by you,all these years,most of the vlogs currently are ads...and people are still committed .Attack the people coming directly for YOU!!

Good on you for wanting to keep things private. But I feel like influencers decide to stop sharing things right after a breakup. The pattern goes: oversharing then breakup then intense bouts of self-love, cue lots of posts about how we need to take care of number one then a YT post announcing that people are nosy, never sharing anything again etc. It’s a formula at this point, I’m seeing this everywhere for some reason!

Spot on! Clearly, the lifestyle influencers private life is their CAREER/BUSINESS - nine and a half times out of ten. They put it all out there, milk it for every penny they can get then jump on the privacy bandwagon when they divorce or break up because the wonderful life and illusion of authenticity they were selling and making bank from is all collapsed.

Facts

I know people are really excited to share their kids, but please don’t post their full government name and DOB online. Identity theft can ruin their whole life. Even private accounts, never forget that 90% of victims know the perpetrator.

This definitely applies to life outside of socials, especially because I've been getting questions from family members recently about when am I going to get married and I'm just thinking I don't talk to you like that so its none of your business smh

Girl I’ve missed you! Haven’t seen a video in years, You were my favorite back like 5-6yrs ago. I’d watch your hauls everyday

I always knew when my time came to be a mother, I didn’t ever want to share the most precious, transformative journey of my life so far online.

I feel like it works for Mel as her brand was never about her personal life, her hubby or kids. It’s about HER style! And she has never shared anything so people don’t expect that of her. She got her following without it.

the skin match is rude! LOL! loved that!

Patricia is out here living life like she’s a single women. Secrecy and viewer manipulation gets views and likes. However, Its not ever our business. But Pulling back now is sus tho 🤷🏾‍♀️

Patricia, Patricia, Patricia! This was right on time and a true confirmation. Girl you’re successful. I’ve been with you since Day One( under another channel). Not everybody wishes you well and I have been a victim of situations like this. Now I move in silence. To hell with how people feel about it and what they have to say. I’m proud of you sis. Proud of all the Patty fam👏❤️‍🩹🙏💪

Really great topic! It's so true nowadays we need to get the balance right of what is shared online. Love this video format and concept!

Totally agree with this and love how private I’ve always been … it’s hard to grow a creative career though! Everyone wants to feel like they know you before they invest in you!

Excellent points, Patricia. I've been watching you for over 8 years, and you've made quite a life for you and your family. Well done!😊

I love this Patricia, way to go.

Although I have watched KZread for years and have consumed a lot of videos regarding folks private lives I did kinda cringe at times when I would see folks exposing very intimate details of their lives on the internet to thousands of people. It’s just not wise to expose your life to strangers in such detail - something has to be sacred, especially folks kids. I would never expose my children on the internet too many creeps out there - this video is giving some good advice more video content creators should take heed

That skin match is insane ❤

Yes, keep your family protected with privacy. Enjoy your PEACE. You are the influencer . You are doing wonderful enjoy Yes the chicnatural has never shown her husband etc Just be happy

I’m so proud to see you in this place in your life. You started on this so young and social media influencing was untapped ground. You are one of the pioneer of this space so surely you will have gotten burnt for the ones after you to learn and for you to learn. You’re amazing Patricia. In my head you’re my bestie 😅❤

I love your videos and makeup!!

Never been those early!! Love this ❤

In case you don't know, all of your social media links in the bio are dead, they don't go to your profiles. I tried visiting them and thought you wiped yourself off the face of the earth lol but when I googled your correct accounts came up

I know am going to love this 🥰

Perfect timing ❤

Hey Lady Patricia, may I have the name/link of your Rode microphone that you are using? Thank you

Patti was definitely an over-sharer. That delivery vlog of Nova was wild. But we love the openness. I think the nosiness comes from people not seeing Mike and wondering if you're together. Can't be surprised when you share your hubby then dont and people wonder where has he been. part of being an influencer is being personable (to a certain degree). But I get where you're coming from. I dont even share my kids on social media thats only my friends...nope. privacy always..but im also not an influencer. But lets be real, you only make sponsored content and all your instagram content is you flexing or promoting a product. I get it, its your job, no critique..just saying

And that's why I only look for Patricia every now & then. She's like a friend who you've drifted apart from but you still care. Like she said, she went from sharing EVERY aspect of her life to trying to guide us to the path of investment & wealth to material things that some of us simply can't (or don't want to) afford As a viewer from WAY back, I am happy for her growth & hope she's happy But she just told us all - as tactfully as she could... TO MIND OUR BUSINESS ABOUT HER LIFE OUTSIDE OF WHAT SHE POSTS as long as the sponsors continue to roll in funding trips & gifting items, gotta respect her gangsta.

Hi Patricia!!!!!

Here super early ! Where tf you been lol 😂 waitttt KZread has not been notifying me 😭 I got a lot of catching up to do

This is for me🙌🏾 lords know I talk to much😅

Can you please elaborate on the differences of secrecy vs privacy?

I so appreciate this perspective ❤️TY

3/4 of my pregnancies were "secret" not just on socials but irl. I believe in "mal de ojo" people's intentions aren't always what they seem and protecting the peace of myself and my family is a non negotiable for me.

spot on

Look what y’all done did…I’ve realized that creators that I grew with have all rebranded to being more private about their lives…I understand but I’m not sure how I personally feel about it…I’m personally super private…which is why while I thought being a creator was awesome, and I wanted to do it…I also don’t think I could…but that’s why I admired your bravery which is also why you’re also more successful

Peakmill is also great at keeping her personal life private

Shes not with her husband anymore?

I havent watched her vlogs since pre covid. At the start of video she mentioned breakup. Did she split up with her husband ?

I think they do it for views, and to become in the circle of being an influencer. It's really sad! Do it for fun, to educate.

I’m a nobody and when I was pregnant I didn’t tell a soul but family and close friends. If someone asked on social media because they heard from someone else, I would tell them. I was in my final few weeks before I ever made any comments relating to pregnancy and when I gave birth I shared a picture when my baby was christened. I’m just saying if me a nobody can value my privacy I don’t understand how public figures don’t. Fans don’t need to know your whole life. When you let them in too far it’s hard to keep them out later. Nothing wrong with holding the precious and emotional close to home.

Peakmill is one private woman on this youtube. No one even knew she was expecting. We saw her baby when she was about 2 years old. Even her marriage was private. In fact, she made a video saying, "i got married and had a baby"😂😂😂. People were shocked because they expected to see a 2 day old baby. The baby was 2 years old.

You do your makeup so fast 😭

The influencer your referring to isn’t the same kind of creator are you tho Pb. She also didn’t share her wedding or her show her home…

Definitely talking about melissaswardrobe in the beginning

It's obvious that her and her husband are not together because, as a wife myself, i would have hushed the rumor that my husband and i are no longer married. It's a quick come one guy me and Mike are locked in, and we have just decided to no longer document or post marriage on social media.

You may actually need some time off social media. It is ok to do it. We tend to forget it as we got acustomed to share everything online. It is indeed important to live in the moment off camera

Live and learn! Yeah she made money back then, but she was younger, the Internet has changed & she has adjusted her boundaries to what keeps her real life healthy & thriving. Oversharing comes at a cost & this info is out there forever. It's kinda like sharing a nude, in the moment it was good, you liked and trusted that person, but when the relationship ends, you might have some regrets, you might not want that person having that personal photo & you can't always control what they do with it.
